Title: 4 minutes
Post by: LtNarol on June 02, 2003, 08:17:18 pm
4 minutes of your time, tis all I ask.

Due to a number of extenuating circumstances and the loss of numerous key staff to other projects and or Real Life, Into the Night: Exposition is again stuck in the water.  After nearly a year, this demo is just a few steps from release, but without more experienced and dedicated people, those few steps may take too long.

We still need fredders, we have recently gained a couple but they both appear rather busy - more help is almost certainly going to be needed.

We still need render artists, certain minor effects need to be replaced, and backgrounds for various things are needed.

Now, depending on how fast of a reader you are, this has probably taken you anywhere between 30 seconds to 1.5 minutes to read, I asked for 4 - please consider this in all seriousness for a minute or two if theres any way you'd be willing to help out.  Please.

Thank you for your time.

After reading through the various threads advertising the death of HLP, I've come to the conclusion that more of a community focus is needed here, and I think this thread would be a good place to set a precedent.  Therefore, I have a suggestion...

LtNarol, you can model, right?  Suppose I trade you one FREDded mission for one new model we can use in the TVWP?  Finer details can be negotiated via PM or whatever.

And I would encourage other HLP members to start one-for-one trades such as this, perhaps via the previously-suggested Help Wanted forum. :nod:

If Narol isn't up to the modelling for a mission, talk to me and I'll hook you up with a model or two. :D

Absolutely.  Even texturing and converting some of our existing models would be great.  PM me. :)

Now Goober. Everyone knows that Mik can't texture or convert. ;) Some would say I can't model either. :D

Goober, you really don't want to see what kind of things I can model, you won't be pleased.  My skills are more 2d oriented.  I can texture ships for you if you don't mind throwing some serious effort into a mission or two.

Sure, that would be fine.  I gotta go for the evening, but I'll PM you my contact info.

I can model, in exchange for some POF-to-COB model editing (I can't do it :( )

Well, quite honestly, the 158th doesn't need another modeler (I'm having enough trouble keeping up with mik as it is), however, I'm sure that you me and Goober can work something out ;)

Also, what did you mean by "minor effects need to be replaced"?
